If you're a silver lover, here's
something else you'll appreciate about this lustrous metal: it can
kill or suppress the growth of microorganisms such as bacteria, mold,
and fungus.

Silver's association with
anti-bacterial properties has long been established. The ancient
Phoenicians knew enough to keep water, wine and vinegar in silver
vessels to ensure freshness. It is only recently, however, that
scientists have discovered why silver works. Quite simply, silver
interrupts the bacteria cell's ability to form the chemical bonds
essential to its survival. These bonds produce the cell's physical
structure so when bacteria meets silver it literally falls apart.

Stainless steel doesn't offer
these benefits nor does it retain its value. Why not buy something
that has been staving off illnesses naturally for centuries? Consider
drinking from a silver goblet or eating from flatware an elegant way
to stay healthier. And when it's time to pass down your silver to the
next generation, you can extol silver's health benefits as well.

 Spread the word! If you're
a silver dealer selling your wares from your shop or at shows, print
a poster to use on your display case or wall, enlightening your
customers as to the health benefits of owning silver, not to mention
its intrinsic value. 8x10
